blood was used for clarifying instead of
bone black. as at present. The scum from
the watts at one of the refneries had been
thrown on grass plot which came under
the observation of the elder Havemeyer,
the great New York sugar refner. He
saw the grass assume in a day or two a
wonderful degree of greenness. He sent
several barrels of the refuse to his Long

ABUSE OF CORPORATE ORGANI-
ZATIONS.
LFrom Hampers Weekly. [

The wrong to individual independence
which is done by strikes and by violent
interference with the rights of honest
men who choose to decide for themselves
upon what terms to sell their labor Is
undeniable. 1t is an abuse of the power
of combination. But the wrong to So
ciety of combinations to keep prices high
and wages low is no less unques fashionable.
Vast and irresponsible power is liable TO
equally vast abuse-a fact which we
and not in the other. that serious dangers
lie. The discomfort, the sense of injustice,
the hostility of class. to which agitators
and anarchists appeal, and which furnish
the soil for the seed that they sow, spring
from the tendencies in our civilization of
which the great trusts" are the latest
manifestation. We are fond of saying
that American citizens, however poor,
are free and Independent, and exercise at
pleasure the glorious privilege of the
ballot. But did not Webster speak the
truth in saying that whoever controls
the means of livelihood controls the men?
The miner who lives upon the company's
land, in the company's house, liable TO
| lose wages and house at any moment, at
the will of the company, may not I'M
probably find his freedom and indepen-
dence in the exercise of the privilege of
his ballot somewhat qualified. At least
he is in no degree responsible for one of
the most immediate of public dangers
the use of money to corrupt voters and
buy legislators.

THE SlCkLY GREEN STAMP.

When the Hon. Don NJ. Dickinson of
Michigan has been confirmed as postmas-
ter-general the first thing on the pro-
gramme is the oath of office, unless Mr..
Dickinson prefers to affirm.
81, Don NJ. Dickinson" he should
firmly yet reverently say, ''do solemnly
swear (or affirm that | will faithfully
perform all the duties required of me,
and abstain from everything forbidden by
the laws in relation to the establishment
of post offices and post roads within the
United States; and that | will honestly
and truly account for and pay over any
money belonging to the said United
States which may come into my possess
ion or control: So help me, God And
do furthermore and especially and
particularly swear (or affirm that with
out days or evenan hours unnecessary
delay | will do away with, nullify, de-
molish. upset, overthrow. put an end
to, eradicate, extirpate, root out, grub
up, crush, quash, squash smash. shat
ter, batter, latter, put down, suppress.
dispel, sweep away, erase, expunge,
dsmantle, annul, eXtinguish, quench
eXterminate, annihilate, and in every
other practicable way averruncate that
abhorred abol1ination and gratuitous
affection, the sickly green two-cent post
age stamp"
Having taken this oath, which will be
found none too strong for the occasion.
Postmaster-General Dickinson's next
official performance should be to send for
the subordinate who is responsible for
the recent charge from the satisfactory
Venetian red to the ssickly green. Hav-
ing taken on the most terrifying aspect
which his handsome features can be made
to assume, Mr.. Dickinson should proceed
to order back the reddish brown stamp
and to give the sickly green man such
a wigging as will surpass the gruesom
est horrors of nightmare imaginings

THEDOCk LABORERS OFLONDON.

Rise early and watch the crowd at the
st. Katherine or the West and East India
gates. The bell rings. the gate opens.
and the struggling mass surge into the
docks. The foremen and contractors
stand behind the chain or in the wooden
boxes. The "ticket-men" pass through.
and those constantly preferred are taken
on without dispute. Then the struggle
for the last tickets. To watch it one
would think it was life and death to those
concerned. But Jack, having secured
ticket by savage fight, sells it to needer
Tom for twopence, and goes off with the
coppers to drink or to gamble. Or, if the
flush of business forces the employers to
clear the gates" many of those who on
a slack morning would be most desperate
in their demand for work will ''book off,
after they have earned sufficient for a pint
of beer and pipe of tobacco and nights
/ lodging. Or take a day which offers no
mplOyment-watch the crowd as it dis
perses. The honest worker, not as vet
attracted by the destinations of East-end
social life. will return to his home with a
heavy heart. There he will mind the
baby. while his wife seeks work: or. if
not entirely hopeless. he trudges YEARLY
along the streets searching in vain for
permanent work. But the greater part
of the crowd will lounge down the water
side and stand outside the wharf and dock
gates. As the day draws on, the more
respectable element will disappear, while
its place will be taken by the professional
''cadger" and dock lounger. A gentle
man. who has lived and worked in this
district % years. estimates the number of
dock and water-sde loungers at 2000.
These men would work at no price.
They gain their livelihood by petty theft,
by cadging the earnings of their working
friends, through gambling or drink. and
by charitable assistance. From all ac-
counts very much fear that these are
the recipients of the free breakfast with
which the well-to-do West-end in times
of social panic soothes its own conscience
and calms its own fears Nineteenth

A Car Fire Extinpuisher,

a practicable invention, perhaps. is that
Of a car fire eXtinguisher. in case Of de-
railment or collision. 1t consists of a tank
of water above the stove, with a large
pipe extending from it to the inside of the
stove, just above the fire; trap in the
bottom of the tank is connected by levers
with series of arms al the bottom of the
car, one of these arms extending under
each corner of each platform, while
another extends down toward the track;
in case, therefore, of collision, one Of the
arms under the platform must be struck
first. thus moving the lever, opening the
trap, and instantly deluging the fire with
water-or, in case of derailment, one of
the arms hanging down toward the track
is struck and operates the lever.

VOLAPUK.
THE NEW UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE.
from the open Court OF Chicago.

Leibnitz devoted much time to the con-
which fell fiat. Liable invented a philo-
sophical language, and 1868 kircher pub
lished his Photographic. In 1868 the Roy
al society sanctioned John Wilkins's
Philosophical Language by publication
in London. Most inventors of this kind
attempted the biographical haye signs
represent ideas. We have this in mathe-
MATES in the plus and minus signs, but
practically this is reverting to hierogly-
phics. Johann Martin Schleyer seems to
have solved the problem, for in 1873 he
arranged the most simple artificial Ian
guage, and so rapidly has it been recog-
nized as of practical use that in Europe,
Asia and Africa, 100000 persons are
said to use it in their intercourse.
The alphabet employed is the Roman
with some of the German dotted letters
added. Volapuk is formed on the gener-
al model of Aryan tongues in its signs
representing letters and words, the root
words being taken from living languages,
mainly Indo-Germanic and Romance. In
making the vocabulary English afforded
the largest member of words Latin. Ger
mau, French and Spanish next, in the
order named.
The simple Anglo-Saxon roots abound
in English and their brevity caused their
adoption. The numerals are bal, 2 tel
3 xii, 1 full, lul, NAL, vel, ol, 8 zul
10 balls, 20 tells, 100 tum, 1000 mil, million
balion: II would be balsebal; the letter {
